I hope my installation of Mint doesn’t start acting up, because I don’t want to learn whatever it is half y’all are talking about.
I just want it to work, and so far it has.
The only problem I’ve had is nvidia driver updates breaking Blender. So, I need to restore and tell update to ignore that one.

I’m on Gentoo, so it’s probably a leaner install than most.
